“…A more recent database is that of the Calgary approach to ANnoTating HYDrocarbon degradation genes (CANT-HYD), which contains genes involved in aerobic and anaerobic aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon degradation pathways. CANT-HYD uses Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) for the annotation of six monophyletic clades of genes related to aliphatic aerobic degradation ( alkB, almA, ladA, bmo , CYP153, prm ), six related to aromatics ( dmp, dsz , MAH, ndo, tmo, tom ), and eight related to anaerobic pathways (Khot et al, 2021). The workflow derives 37 HMMs from experimental and in silico-inferred functional enzymes and is designed for the identification and annotation of marker genes, not including some pathways of hydrocarbon degradation.…”
